Gauge Symmetry Breaking through the Hosotani Mechanism in Softly Broken Supersymmetric QCD
Takenaga, Kazunori
Original · EN
Gauge symmetry breaking through the Hosotani mechanism (the dynamics of nonintegrable phases) in softly broken supersymmetric QCD with NFfd flavors is studied. For N= even, there is a single SU(N) symmetric vacuum state, while for N= odd, there is a doubly degenerate SU(N) symmetric vacuum state in the model. We also study generalized supersymmetric QCD by adding NFadj numbers of massless adjoint matter. The gauge symmetry breaking pattern such as SU(3)→ SU(2)× U(1) is possible for appropriate choices of the matter content and values of the supersymmetry breaking parameter. The massless state of the adjoint Higgs scalar is also discussed in the models.
